This presentation discusses corporate social responsibility (CSR) in Bangladesh, particularly within the banking sector. It defines CSR as a form of corporate self-regulation integrated into business models. In 2008, the Bangladesh Bank took the initiative to formalize CSR practices among banks and financial institutions in Bangladesh through a new directive. CSR provides benefits like allowing organizations to be profitable while avoiding environmental harm. Most banks in Bangladesh, where there are 56 scheduled banks, are now engaged in CSR practices as global competitiveness demands higher standards.
